Ali Larijani, who is in Turkey to attend the 10th conference of the Parliamentary Union of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) Member States (PUIC), held a meeting with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Wednesday.
The two officials stressed the need for stronger cooperation between Tehran and Ankara on energy, transportation, trade and industry, given their commonalities and capabilities.
They also discussed the developments in the Middle East region, and emphasized the necessity for joint efforts by Iran and Turkey for peaceful settlement of the regional conflicts and the establishment of peace and stability in the Muslim countries.
